    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To industrially advantageously produce carbon nanotubes. SOLUTION: When a carbon-containing material is thermally decomposed in the presence of a catalyst substrate to produce carbon nanotubes, a series of steps, that is, (i) a step for thermally decomposing the carbon-containing material in the presence of the catalyst substrate to form the carbon nanotubes on the substrate, (ii) a step for separating the formed carbon nanotubes from the substrate, (iii) a step for applying and drying a catalyst fluid containing hyperfine catalyst particles on the substrate after the separation of the carbon nanotubes to regenerate the catalyst substrate and (iv) a step for thermally decomposing the carbon-containing material in the presence of the regenerated catalyst substrate to form the carbon nanotubes on the substrate are repeatedly carried out.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a catalyst liquid used in the synthesis of carbon nanotubes by the thermal decomposition of a carbon-containing material, to obtain a catalytic substrate formed by using the catalytic liquid, to obtain a method for producing the catalytic substrate using the catalytic fluid and to obtain a method for synthesizing carbon nanotubes using the catalytic substrate. SOLUTION: This catalytic liquid for the synthesis of carbon nanotubes comprises a micro-emulsion prepared by dispersing hyperfine catalyst particles for the synthesis of carbon nanotubes in a solvent. The catalytic substrate for the synthesis of carbon nanotubes has hyperfine catalyst particles formed from the catalytic liquid on the surface. A carbon-containing material is thermally decomposed in the presence of the catalytic substrate of form carbon nanotubes on the substrate.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To attain a high yield and to enable continuous operation and mass production by decomposing a hydrocarbon at a high temperature on a catalyst comprising metal molybdenum or a metal molybdenum-containing material to deposit carbon nanotubes on the catalyst. SOLUTION: A catalyst comprising metal molybdenum or a metal molybdenum-containing material, preferably a catalyst obtained by supporting metal molybdenum on an inorganic support is put in a reactor and a hydrocarbon is decomposed in the reactor at 800-1,200 deg.C to deposit carbon nanotubes on the catalyst. The catalyst with the deposited carbon nanotubes is discharged from the reactor. The carbon nanotubes are continuously produced by combining the depositing and discharging steps. In other way, a hydrocarbon oil containing the catalyst is spouted into a reactor kept at 800-1,200 deg.C and the hydrocarbon is decomposed to form carbon nanotubes.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To safely produce and recover a fullerene without touching with a human body. CONSTITUTION:A method for producing fullerene comprises using a carbonaceous material and a heat-resistant conductive material as an anode 3 and a cathode 2, respectively, in a container 1, feeding a required electric power between both the electrodes 2,3 from an electric power-feeding source 4 for discharging an arc, and subsequently guiding the produced soot containing the fullerene into a fullerene recovery closed container receiving a solvent for dissolving the fullerene through a conduit 10 in a state stirred with an inert gas discharged from valves 9.
